I have a Vintage Bausch & Lomb spotting scope (Balscope SR.) I think is the model. I have seen some of these scope on ebay fitted with turrets with different power eyepieces that you can turn the turret to a select powder.
Are the turret still made and can anyone know where i can find one. (i have the eyepieces i can use) THANKS for any help/info.

B&L hasn't made sporting optics for a number of years, so the turrets you ask about are no longer in production. B&L was sold off to Bushnell (or became Bushnell - not sure which), and I have not ever seen a Bushnell scope w/turrents. I believe that the turrent models were discontinued long before B&L disappeared.

I think the only way you are going to get a turret is to find another scope and scavenge. I think the easiest place to find one is one of the larger internet auction sites.
